Just like you brought in the league to us? You know...the game that you lost - obviously not the only game you have lost to us or anyone this season but one of the 6 you have lost this season...if you cant remember now your hitting some good form.

How many did you take to Whitehaven?





Queue the - it was a Thursday blah....we were playing rubbish blah...no tickets were sent to us before boo hoo didnt know where the coaches were going to park blah blah

What an absolute load of tosh:

1) We dont print tickets, unless requested to do so for RFL. Should we have to pay to print 1000 tickets when it simpy isn't necessary. Our turnstyle operators are trustworthy enough to receive money, so there is no need to experience the debacle at Stobart last season where our "200" fans had to queue for 20 minutes for a ticket being sold by one inept oxygen thief, to then have to queue again to get through the turnstile operated by said oxygen thief's twin. More than 1000 paying fans had no trouble getting into the southstand on sunday, with the same number of turnstiles.

2) With regards the 15 coaches. A tremendous effort, to be applauded. But what can the club do - "secure" a car park of a private firm (B&M) that sells everything for £1. We have no special arrangement with them, they just seize an opportunity on a matchday to make a quick and easy buck from fans with motors. The surrounding area is all road. The club have managed to get Halifaxplc (not LGB grrr) to open the car park to ease street congestion.

You go on about professionalism... the Widnes Press Release is the absolute antonym of professionalism, and seems intent on stoking the fire before the big game.

Typical whining scousers - finding the worst of every situation and thriving on grief. Hail Boris.

You know you're right there. All that and yet we can still get 1,000 over there.

You should be bringing 2,000 to our place then. You better get those tickets ordered to avoid the crush at the west stand desk.

You need to realise that the Vikings are coming to town and thus we need red carpets laid out for everything including coaches. Im also amazed at how abusive Yorkshire folk are!

The Widnes press release has obviously ruffled your yorkshire feathers.

So it manged to do as desired.

I can understand it from fans, but from the club. Has Loz Wildbore got a job as press officer.

Again, we do tickets for visiting fans that can be ordered from their clubs in order to make things run better. If you or your club can’t be bothered then who’s fault is that? It seems to me your club couldn't be bothered what discomfort and wasted time their fans had to endure, if they couldn't be bothered ordering tickets for you. Perhaps you should take it up with them.

So, if you cannot cope with large visiting crowds and accommodate parking, how would you cope in SL where you’ll often get 2 or 3 times as many?

It’s letting fans know ahead of time that there are likely to be large queues getting in. I’d say that was a professional attitude. If that causes embarrassment to Halifax, it can hardly be blamed on our club.

At least we’re not Bradfordians like you lot.

when you come to stobarts tell your fans they can park there rag and bone carts in the field across the road.
